Laser treatment for eyes - FEMTO-LASIK

The animations were created for the Carl Zeiss AG zeiss.de and their clients in the year 2011.
The goal was to make it easier for the patient to understand what will happen during the operation and to improve the information process.

For those who don`t understand german speaker:

"The Femto LASIK method represents a further development of the LASIK method. With the Femto LASIK method, the corneal flap is prepared with the help of a femtosecond laser. The precision of the laser allows a very precise creation of a corneal flap, independent from the shape and the nature of the respective eye.
In our Smile Eyes eye clinics we use the femtosecond laser VisuMax®, manufactured by Carl Zeiss AG; using this instrument, the surgeon will within a few seconds create a microscopic cut in the cornea, to create the corneal flap. Using this laser system it is possible to achieve more precise sight correction while being less invasive to the tissue; this new procedure also provides for a further reduction of risks related to the cut.
